My favorites are deadly and vast. I'm a little confused with quiet, but perhaps it will make more sense once it's filled in. Simple doesn't really work for me, color-wise. I don't know why, so I can't really give any advise as to what to do to fix it, but it looks off to me. I think there could be more objects in intimate, as well. Maybe a dresser or two nightstands.

These are kinda trippy, but in a good way. They are interesting. I think the ones i like best are vast, and quiet/deadly. I think intimate feels like something is missing or maybe it needs a shift in color, I can't really say what.

Because of the black and white tiles, each image is pretty complicated. So the simple and quiet ones are more complicated comparing to the themes... But I like the image of each of them.. Especially, vast, quiet, deadly. Those images are very well rendered and the melancholy color really works.

vast: nice, do you plan on using only red tones thoughsimple: I'm not sure if this can be fixed but in the corner at the back the walls touch similar colored squaresquiet: I would definitely add starsintimate: I like how it's in red but I'd also try and use some violetdeadly: I really like the surreal look and the bleak crimson red in the backgroundyou're missing cluttered

Cool tiles, and great work taking on this theme so abstractly!I'm a big fan of vast and deadly because they seem to embody their words the best. After reading the concept of quiet I think it works too.

These are definitely some of the more interesting takes on the themes. Vast is probably my favorite due to the desolation. The crevasse really helps to give this some real depth as it recedes back into the space. Deadly is executed (heh) really uniquely. Lovin' the texture of the brush strokes. Quiet would have to be my third, though on concept alone.

I love the graphic quality and colors you are using as well as the repetition of the grid throughout all the pieces, the only one I have a problem is is quiet, though you explained it to us the piece doesn't look right off the bat like an environment, maybe have the planets solid and just the background as a grid? Nice job!

1- interesting content and still communicates well, i like the checkerboard sky2- communicates very well and the checkers make the chair pop3- at first glance it doesnt really look like the earth and moon, so make that a little more clear4-i think the bed could maybe be in a different position in the room to help the composition5-i like the painting technique in the background and this if very deadly

Though I love punny sorts of things, in this case I prefer "Vast" and "Quiet" over "intimate" and "deadly." You've got a lot of potential in this style, and I think it's working best with more serious-ish subjects.

Quiet, vast, and deadly are my favorite. I agree with your post regarding quiet. I'm really excited to see it finished. I like your checkerboard theme, it was an interesting, and successful way to help illustrate the words.

I see your excellent kitchen the other week got you in the mood for checkers. The checker board thing works in some places (deadly maybe? or intimate?) but doesn't add to the viewing experience in others. Often your patterning just comes across as a way to fill up space and avoid the assignment. I think it would be better to leave the checkers unfinished on quiet, they make it sorta predictable and without space for the viewer to breathe. deadly, intimate, and vast seem to have the most atmosphere and scene included but I think intimate could steer a little away from hearts and a little more towards strewn sheets and crumpled clothes also a few more objects or furniture. You tend to focus on one object and then but amorphous colors and patterns around it. Your cut paper kitchen was great, don't be afraid to set the scene. good luck!

simple intimate and deadly are the ones I would choose. I don't know if I could honestly say that the quiet one reads well because without your description I would not have been able to guess it. Cool use of checkerboard pattern to make your settings tie together.
